What should I know about roller garage door replacement in Edinburgh and the Lothians?
- Moving from single-skin to insulated laths reduces heat loss, draughts and noise in a garage you use every day.
- Security-rated models are available, and we show you the manufacturer's certificate for the exact door being quoted.
- The opening is measured again at the free survey, so the new door suits the opening rather than copying the old door's size.
- Springs on old manual doors hold stored energy, so our fitters release them with the proper tools before dismantling anything.

Rules that apply in Scotland
Planning
Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission in Scotland. Listed building consent applies to listed buildings, and conservation-area controls, planning conditions or title conditions can restrict changes to how a garage looks, so check before ordering.
Structural work
Structural alterations, such as widening the opening or fitting a new lintel, need a building warrant from the local authority before work starts.
Questions about roller garage door replacement in Edinburgh and the Lothians
Are guide prices the same across Edinburgh and the Lothians?
Yes. The guide prices are the same in every town in Edinburgh and the Lothians. The written quote reflects your opening and the door you choose, not your postcode.
Which towns do you cover in Edinburgh and the Lothians?
We cover Edinburgh and the Lothians, including Edinburgh, Livingston, Musselburgh and Bathgate. Every town has its own page with local details, and you can start a guide price for any postcode in Edinburgh and the Lothians online.
Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Edinburgh and the Lothians?
Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission in Scotland, and widening the opening needs a building warrant. If you live in a listed building, a conservation area or on an estate with covenants or planning conditions, check before ordering.
Can you replace a roller door made by a different company?
Yes. We replace roller garage doors of any make, and up-and-over doors too. The old door is removed and disposed of as part of the price, so it doesn't matter who made or fitted it. What matters is the opening itself, which we measure afresh at the free survey before quoting.
Is VAT included in the replacement price?
Yes. Home prices are shown including VAT. Garage doors are standard-rated at 20% and there's no reduced rate for them, so the figure in your written quote is the price you pay, unless you change the specification or further work is agreed with you in writing.
